DESCRIPTION:Directed by Peter Casaer and narrated by Daniel Day-Lewis, this new 
 documentary provides a harrowing look at the challenges of delivering 
 humanitarian aid in armed conflicts. Over 70 minutes, Access to the Danger 
 Zone explores the strategies that Doctors Without Borders has employed to 
 save lives in the world’s worst war zones, including Afghanistan, 
 Somalia, and eastern Democratic Republic of Congo—strategies that are 
 tested each and every day. Interviews with key experts from Doctors Without 
 Borders, the International Committee of the Red Cross, and the United 
 Nations are accompanied by dramatic footage shot in these countries in 2011 
 and 2012.\n\nAfter working continuously in Somalia since 1991, Doctors 
 Without Borders was forced to close all of its medical programs in the 
 country in August 2013. In response to what became an intolerable series of 
 attacks against its staff and facilities over the years, the organization 
 made the difficult decision to withdraw from Somalia, illustrating the 
 profound challenges of maintaining humanitarian access, and underscoring 
 the timeliness and relevance of this film.\n\nView the trailer here: 
 http://www.doctorswithoutborders.org/aboutus/page.cfm\n\nJoin us following 
 each screening for a Q&A with local Doctors Without Borders aid workers, 
 who will share stories from their overseas assignments.\n\nThese film 
 screenings are free, fully accessible, and open to the public.\n
